Ida — Video
Get the Flash Player to see this content.
Ida came on shore this morning as a minimal tropical storm at Dauphin Island. We intercepted this system and the outer bands were the real story. Myself, Eric Parker, and meteorologist David Neal traveled the Alabama and Florida coastline in search of some dramatic video and locations to do live shots. Areas included in the video include: Alabama Point; Fort Morgan, AL; Orange Beach, AL; Pensacola, FL; and Perdido Key, FL.
I will post a full recap of the events and a timeline of locations and conditions felt later today. Now, time to get ready to trek back toward home.

Really sweet dude! That was some water in the parking lot!
I live in Piedmont, Alabama and the last few years have really enjoyed learning about and following the weather. I enjoy following your storm chasing online and appreciate all your efforts…..I’d been on the road between Gadsden and Piedmont back in March 1994 right before and right after the tornado hit the church out in Goshen, it was about the most memorable experience of my life….
